Let’s Live Connected
Thanks for choosing Midco for your property’s Wi-Fi solution!
Your experience with this service matters to us. We hope you find that this quick
start guide is a helpful tool to get you going with this service.
We have even more tips and tools at Midco.com/PropertySupport, where you can
learn more about different features, read common questions and answers, and get
tips about your services. This is where you can also access user guides and upgrade
information for your residents.
Remember, if you, your guests or residents need quick access to a network, your
property comes with free, public Wi-Fi – look for your property’s Wi-Fi on your
network list. However, we don’t recommend using the public network for
extended use since its speeds are limited and it’s not as secure as our per-unit
connectivity.
If you do run into issues, contact our business solutions support experts for
questions and assistance at 1.800.888.1300.

Create and Send Vouchers
The Community Wi-Fi 360 voucher system allows property managers to create
individual resident accounts based on a specific unit number. Each resident will
receive a voucher upon move-in and they’ll use that code to setup their own
account, password, PIN and devices on their portal at MidcoPropertyWiFi.com.
Administrators can create vouchers using one of two methods:
• Manual Entry
• Bulk Entry
Note that a Midco representative likely uploaded an initial batch during client
fulfillment, but you can use these instructions to make updates as resident
information changes.
Manual Entry
You can create or edit vouchers one at a time one of two ways.
To manually create a single voucher using Unit List:
1. Click Unit List in the left menu.
2. Enter a unit number in the search bar or scroll to find it in the table.
3. Once the unit information appears, click the green ticket button in the
Voucher column.
4. Fill in remaining information for the voucher and verify the valid from date.
• The valid from date is the resident’s move in date. When the new
resident uses their voucher, it will disable any previous resident
devices.
5. Click Create Voucher(s). The new resident will automatically receive their
voucher information via text and/or email depending on their preferences.
7
To manually create a single voucher using Create Vouchers:
1. Click Create Vouchers in the left menu.
2. Use the Property dropdown to select a one from the list.
3. Add one or more unit using the Unit(s) dropdown. If you select more than
one unit, you can manage and fill out multiple vouchers.
4. Fill in remaining information for each voucher and verify the valid from
date.
• The valid from date is the resident’s move in date. When the new
resident uses their voucher, it will disable any previous resident
devices.
5. Click Create Voucher(s). The new resident will automatically receive their
voucher information via text and/or email depending on their preferences.
8
Bulk Entry
To create multiple vouchers at once:
1. Click Create Vouchers in the left menu.
2. Use the Property dropdown to select a one from the list.
3. Under Create Multiple Vouchers, click Download CSV Template File.
• The CSV Template File is a dynamically created file with information
automatically filled in for each property unit that exists in your portal
system. You should delete any rows that don’t need a voucher
created for the unit.
4. Open the CSV file from your downloads and update it.
• Fill in the resident information in columns A through C.
• If needed, change communication preferences in columns D and E.
• Do not edit columns F, G or I or delete any columns.
• If needed, change the valid from date (move in date) of the resident
in column H.
5. Save the CSV.
6. Return to your portal and click Browse. Navigate to the file you saved,
select it and click Open. Your file name will appear in the box.
7. Click Import Voucher(s). The new residents will automatically receive their
voucher information via text and/or email depending on their
communication preferences.
• If your file fails to upload, double check your data. Check that your
emails are formatted correctly, and all residents must have first and
last names.
